Awesome news! I was set on trading Devon, but will hang onto him for another 4 weeks now.

Just a question mate. Did you consider I.Maric last week instead of Goldy? it ends up perfect for you in that Redden and Big O will play this week with your 2 x R11 bye rucks which was a reason why i didnt start a Jacobs/Cox as well as NN factor.
Maric was a bit more expensive i guess.

I wanted Maric but he was out of reach.
With the news of HMac going out for an extended period of time Goldy was the obvious choice at his bottomed out price. Giles to Goldy cost me next to nothing but a trade.
I just happen to luck out this week with both Redden and Orren playing. It's a relief to have something go right after Pendles, Lewis & Waters decided to wreak havoc.

Not sure if true, rumour is Zaharakis did a quad @ training and won't play tonight.
True. Quad injury and could keep him out for 5-6 (early reports).

Oh Dear Sandiland and Zharakis are giving my already flimsy team some woe.

Not injured but dropped this week. Wasn't sure where to post this, but good news for Duffield owners worried that he may not get his spot back in Rd13 after the Dockers big win over the Tiges yesterday.

Noticed one or two things posted on DreamTeam Talk about Swan being a late out - is this just someone's trolling or wishful thinking?

Christ I hope not, he's my captain this week with Ablett vice captain.
The way my luck is going at the moment it wouldn't surprise me if he's a late withdrawal but surely Collingwood wouldn't have bothered naming him if he wasn't going to play. I can't see any reason why they would need to play smoke and shadows behind the windows when they are playing Melbourne.

Dons named Zaha knowing he was injured, just sayin'

Yeah but Zaharakis wasn't out with injury prior to this weekend and Essendon were playing a tough opponent which kind of justified them playing games by naming him and pulling him out at the last minute, although I still think doing stuff like that is pretty stupid and a waste of time.
I can't see what Collingwood has to gain by naming Swan and then pulling him out at the last minute, they should beat Melbourne comfortably regardless.

Maybe just giving Swan an extra 4 days to be 95% right to go, even though he was probably only a 50/50 on Thursday arvo?
I don't see how it's justified when a player does a 6 week quad on Wednesday night and he's named on Thursday night only to be pulled out just before the game.
If I was a punter who had a decent bet on the Bombers I'd be filthy.

Yeah well I certainly wasn't amused when I found out Zaharakis did his quad prior to the teams being named on Thursday night and I had just wasted a trade bringing him in on Friday on the basis that he was named in the team and was playing.
Anyway I took some pleasure out of Essendon getting their camuffins with their narrow loss to Sydney, their little stunt to name an injured Zaharakis and pull him out at the last minute counted for nought.

Hope Swan gets a vest! Will be a nice price in a couple of weeks if he does.

Just announced on ABC radio that Sandi is out for ten weeks with turf toe in the other foot. Massive bad luck for the big fella.
Without sounding disrespectful to Sandi, certainly makes Griffin look very attractive as a cheap ruck upgrade.

Swan did a trip but I don't think there is anything in that. Not intentional and gave away the free at the time so the appropriate penalty has already been applied.
Didn't see the hit from Ballantyne but commentators said he has 0% chance of playing next week.
